The second annual $2500 In- ternational 75-1ap quarter-mile stock car championship is the next “big” event slated for Pinecrest Speedway, the concreted oval on No. 7 highway just two miles west of Dufferin Street. Held Earlier Although the top Canadian stock car pilots were participants in 1953, it was a couple of Yank aces â€"â€" Joey Sykes and Ken "Peppy" Warmington of Buffalo -â€" who gave Moore his toughest opposition. Ivan didn’t catch “Pappy” until the 46th lap and Sykes came on to cop second slot. An eight-car jam at the midway mark caused a re-start. American Drivers And when we said it was a 'big' event, we weren't foolin'. First prize for the championship is $1.- 000 in cold cash. Second pays $400 with $250, $150, $100 and $50 going to third. fourth, fifth and sixth place finishers respec- tiyely. But that isn’t all. The four heats pay $100 each with $40 for the winners. The three fastest time trial can divide $125 and there's $25 for the trophy dash. Leads For Carling Trophy All this suggests that Toronto's, Ivan Moore, last year’s winner and current Carling trophy point leader at Pinecrest will have to be at his best if he has any ideas of doing a repeat. This year's renewal of the star studded show will be held Wed- nesday. July 21 â€"- exactly two months’ earlier than the 1953 in- augural. When you recall that last year's International drew a record entry, despite the late date .it’s practically assured all the best drivers in the business will be on hand this time.

Remember too, that proper care of your equip- ment adds to its durability. GOAL BALL Here’s a type of game that two or more people can play. It’s lots of fun and especially good fielding prac- tice. Here’s the idea: A "First, set up a goal about 50 feet away from the bat- ter. The goal consists of two sticks or poles stuck in the ground 30 feet apart. One player goes in goal and the other does the hitting. The hitter tosses the ball up and tries to hit the ball through the goal. The fielder in the goal tries to stop the ball from scoring. If he fields it clearly without a fumble there is no score. If he stops the ball with his hand, legs or any other part of his body but doesn’t get it safely in his hands the batter counts one point. If the ball goes through the goal the batter scores two points. The ball must be hit so that it bounces at least once before it gets to the goal. The batter takes 15 cracks at scoring and then the players c|hange places. 1- 1p LIA... can Ann}.

Richmond Hill Wins Top Prizes panicked last year’s by Bill Ellis Many people are interested in the campaign for artificial ice in our Arena Recently the Assoc- iation received a request for some debentures from a former Rich- mond Hill resident who now lives in England and has been follow- ing the campaign progress to see how his former fellow citizens will make out. Sends Clipping Another local resident who is keenly interested in seeing that the youth of the area get skating, sent me a half page clipping from the Miami Herald on Miami‘s summer skating program. The article has three photographs along with it showing various skating scenes plus the crowd lin- ed up to get in. The opening night of the youth skate night program sponsored by the Greater Miami Council of Churches was so suceessful that expansion of the prOJect already is being planned. Rev. W. P. Harman, executive secretary of the council, said nearly 500 church young people and their parents crowded into the Coral Gables Coliseum Tues- day night and that about 150 were turned away when the supply of rental skates ran out. (It appears the population does not own their own skates as it isn't very pracâ€" tical in Florida’s hot winters . . it‘s not very practical in Rich- mond Hill either until we get ice!) The article is entitled “Skating Expansion Planned" and reads like this: â€" Plan Expansion Under the new arrangement. one of the nights may be set asâ€" ide for younger children and the other for older teenagers and young adults. he added. but that is not yet definite. Hope To Combat Delinquency. Former Village Resident Now In England Enquiies About Shares ln Artificial lce He said the program probably will be expanded to run on both Tuesday and Thursday nights within two weeks instead of the originally plahned schedule of every Tuesday‘ night. Rev. Herman said the reaction of ministers in the area has been very favorable to the opening of the "Make skate night your date night" to fight the upsurgence of juvenile delinquency. Plan To Combine Evangelism What started out as a novelty bout at the Richmond Hill arena last Thursday ended in a near Donnybrook as tempers and fists flew, The first fall of the team match between Killer Mangotich and Al Orlando, and Joe Green- field and Red Garner was sup- posed to be a blindfolded match. All the wrestlers started out with their black hoods on, and the fans were whooping it up when “Stinker”, Al Orlando began to lift his blindfold. He even manâ€" aged to latch a couple of beau- ties on John Parisi who was stir- ring up the boys with a boxing glove on the end of a six foot pole. Well finally the fans be- gan to holler and Garner got the drift, and took his off. Before you could say uncle, all masks were off and the boys were into it, with Garner slamming the Ital- ian Orlando for the first fall. He said the council hopes to take advantage of the general church youth movement, apgar- ently being started by the skating program to organize youth evan- Novelty Blindfold Match Ends With Fists & Tempers Flying Stephen Sim. who left for the West two weeks ago. has been sending glowing accounts home of his exciting experiences with the Calgary Stampeders, Indians and Western Cowboys.

George Tyson, director of Holi- day on Ice {at Toronto’s Ex. last year) in which the Galbraiths skated for six years was there and the group got to talking ab- out skating and today's youth problem. Finally, a deal was worked out with the Galbraiths, who operate Murray's Ice Studio at the Colis- eum, to giVe the church young people a night to skate at the lowest possible cost. Free in- struction was to be provided by the members of the Coral Gables Ice Skating Club and the Gal- braiths were to work up an ex- hibition each time. ' Young People Support Tuesday night proved the church young people thought the idea a good one. The rest of the church family did too and came along to watch if not to skate themselves. Variety Of Uses Well. there you have it‘ It is apparent that there are other uses of artificial ice besides hockey. Ice in any season is possible but summer skating locally wouldn‘t be too practical, financially, due to cost of plant operation. You can see from the above Ml- ami article that a certain church community spirit is built up by getting the young people and their parents together Don’t Forget Local Campaign Our campaign, at present, is more or less coasting through the summer months due to vaca- tion time and its resultant short- age of canvassers.

Repertoire of Dirty Tricks Both A1 and Mangotich used every dirty trick in the book to wear out Joe Greenfield and while Mango held .106 in a stand- ing crotch, Orlando leaned on Mango and with the double pres- sure managed to pin him.

The nine contestants from 8 to 13 years of'age were Bob McWaters, Larry Monkman, Jimmy Rut- ledge, Dennis Guthro, Charlie Shields. Bill Cairns. Roddy Bell, Donald Gordon and Jack Wall- ace. The referee was the coach Bob McLeod and the timer was Matt Bell. The show started with an im- promptu display of warm up ex- ercises ahd acrobatics. The bouts reflected the results of conâ€" sistent training. The comment was overheard of the splendid physiques of the boys. Each match was very evenly contested with the exception of one novice. The bouts were fast and aggres- sive with the best of goodwill and sportsmanship. Not one foul hord was attempted during the entire contest. The most out- standing performances were given by Roddy Bell in winning three bouts and Jimmy Rutledge with his acrobatic display and winning two bouts one against a much larger adversary.

With the co-operation of the Riverdale Zoo in Toronto, a ship- ment of 30 raccoons were recent- ly shipped to the Ross County Coonhunters’ Association in Ohio. As Ohio sportsmen claimed a 17 pound, animal something of a record in that state, local officials decided to include some “whop- pers” in the shipment â€"- most of the coons however were healthy mung ones which should flourish in the Ohio hills. Notwithstand- ing the sizeable express bill. the cooperative gesture was much appreciated by sportsmen across the line. Raccoons are one thing but healthy 250 pound bears are something else. There seems 10 be no difficulty in disposing of bear .cubs, but few people are in- terested in the full-‘grown varie- ty.
